What is Triggers and Processes of Mass Wasting about?
Mass wasting is a geomorphic process by which soil, sand, regolith, and rock move downslope under the force of gravity. It occurs through various processes like debris flows, mudflows, and slumps. Key controlling factors include slope angle, the role of water, and the presence of clays. Mass wasting can be triggered by shocks, slope modifications, changes in hydrologic characteristics, or changes in slope strength from events like volcanic eruptions. Landslide hazard can be reduced through hazard zone mappi
